The people in the collapsing iron gave the immortal ship a small shock from the Holy Lord.

"Of course you can. After all, the battle with those Servants is crucial to your safe return home, so go and call your dear little eggplant along."

After a while.

"How did they do that? So many interstellar warships, each one seems to be a complete enchanted barrier."

Fujimaru Ritsuka, Mashu, and the monkey, led by Bai Zhi, walked to the bridge of the warship.

Here you can see many Cloud Cavalry and Flying Warriors controlling this huge war machine, which doesn't seem to have anything particularly special about it.

But for Fujimaru Ritsuka, this was the most outrageous thing, because inside the spaceship, it was actually a kind of fixed barrier, and those cloud riders and flying soldiers were all created out of thin air using magic.

If there were only one such inherent barrier, it wouldn't be a problem, but the key issue is that there's more than one of these spaceships.

At least 10 warships appeared in the sky.

As is well known, a Reality Marble is a magic trick in which the practitioner materializes their own mental landscape to rewrite reality; it is a subspecies of "imaginary materialization".

It erodes the real world with the practitioner's mental world and obscures the world with rules it creates.

Such powerful intervention in and replacement of the rules of the real world requires immense magical power to support it.

Just like completely transforming a small space into another world requires a lot of energy.

Therefore, the number of Servants who can use Reality Marble is extremely small. This is because casting Reality Marble requires a very high amount of magical power, and most mages or Servants do not have enough magical power reserves to activate it.

For ordinary Servants, even a single Reality Marble consumes a lot of mana. If all of Bai Zhi's many spaceships had Reality Marbles, the mana consumption would be off the charts.

"Who knows~"

Bai Zhi chuckled lightly. For her, magic power was practically inexhaustible ever since she acquired the Dragon Talisman.

"I feel that if Bai Zhi Shangxian were in Chaldea, she would definitely be very popular with Miss Chloe and other Servants who need to replenish their mana in large quantities."

Mashu said in a low voice.

Fujimaru Ritsuka nodded in agreement. As for Kuro, she always felt that Kuro didn't provide enough magic power and always wanted to do other things to her, using some less-than-ideal methods to obtain extra magic power.

Bai Zhi, who can so easily manipulate so many inherent barriers, probably possesses immense magical power even in her saliva.

Is this the talent of a god-like being? It's truly enviable.

Chapter 844 Victoria and the Saber

"We've arrived in Britain. According to intelligence, there seem to be two Servants here: King Arthur and Queen Victoria."

Standing on the bridge, Bai Zhi looked down at the British Isles and spoke calmly.

Although she is currently in Servant form, she is confident that she can defeat all other Servants.

What's more, there's a monkey with them too.

"Eh? Immortal Baizhi knows so much?"

"This world is mine after all, and I have access to far more information than you do."

"The only reason you've gotten this far is because those Lostbelt Lords have too little control over their Lostbelts."

After all, Bai Zhi had cleared many of the FGO storylines back then. In her eyes, Gudako was able to clear many times because the local order in the Lostbelts was already in a state of collapse or was practically non-existent.

For example, Ivan the Terrible.

In addition, there is the powerful assistance of the Servants.

If the order of that world hasn't collapsed too much, then the local rulers can easily make things difficult for them by targeting them.

In other words, Bai Zhi didn't intend to kill Gudako. Otherwise, she could have simply had someone issue a small bounty to show Gudako what the dangers of the world are like.

"Lady Baizhi, the detectors have detected energy activity below, suggesting that two high-energy units are engaged in combat. Shall we proceed with landing control?"

A resolute-looking Cloud Cavalry warrior approached Bai Zhi and reported.

"No rush, let's figure out the situation first and then bring the footage in."

"Yes!"

The Cloud Rider saluted, then turned and left.

A moment later, a projection appeared on the bridge, showing two women seemingly fighting each other.

The blonde woman in the blue dress lowered her sword, her voice icy: "Victoria... your people bleed in the mines, your army tramples the weak on the other side of the ocean, is this what you call 'prosperity'? A king's duty is to protect, not to plunder!"

Queen Victoria stood on a huge steamship, lightly touching the jewel at the top of her scepter, and gave a cold laugh:

"Naive King of Knights, without the flames of coal and gold, how can Britain shine the glory of the world? You couldn't even defend your own kingdom, so what right do you have to judge my empire?"

"You cannot lead these people to prosperity. Your so-called protection will only lead them to their deaths. Their true leader should be me, the corrupt King of Knights. What awaits you is being nailed to a coffin, not me wasting my time here."

"What a wonderful era! The Age of Exploration has begun, and everything is waiting for us to develop. I'm just telling them to work 18 hours a day to seize the opportunity and divide up the world. You don't understand at all."

Queen Victoria laughed at Artoria.

In her view, this was nothing more than a pathetic little girl whose mind had been spoiled by chivalry.

Artoria's pupils constricted, and the holy sword in her hand burst forth with light, reaching Queen Victoria, who was standing on the warship.

“It is precisely because I have made mistakes that I cannot tolerate hypocritical rule! You stuffed eight-year-old children into the cracks of a coal mine until their lungs were filled with coal dust! Is this the ‘jewel’ set in your crown, Victoria?!”

Queen Victoria's scepter struck the deck, steam pipes roared to life, and the fleet's cannons all turned.

“Atrocities? Look at your feet, Artoria—”

She spread her arms, and behind her appeared the phantoms of Mumbai cotton fields, Cape Town mines, and countless docks.

"It is the 'despicable' trade you speak of that has saved millions from famine and war! A saint who feeds on ideals cannot withstand a bullet."

"And you, Artoria Pendragon—you are powerless to judge the love between Lancelot and Guinevere! A 'king' who cannot even see through people's hearts, dares to speak of my people?!"

Ignoring everything else, Artoria leaped onto the mast, her sword flashing as it tore through the steam, and Victoria's shadow soldiers poured out of the ship's cabins.

She sped through the hail of bullets, her sword sweeping down a group of shadowy soldiers.

"This is a lie! True prosperity should not be built on the corpses of others."

She suddenly closed in on Victoria, pressing the tip of her sword against her throat.

“Answer me, Your Majesty… when you were crowned Empress of India, did you hear the cries from the banks of the Ganges?!”

Queen Victoria allowed the sword to sever her pearl necklace, her face ashen.

"You little girl who thinks she's a martyr but is actually just acting on emotion..."

Victoria gave a sneer. "Do you think history cares about a few tears?"

She suddenly grabbed the blade, blood dripping down the ornate patterns on her armor.

"Bearing the nation on your own shoulders, exchanging self-destruction for vain salvation...you are the culprit who suffocated the kingdom!"

Artoria flicked her wrist, unleashing a burst of magic that sent Victoria flying back several meters. The Queen wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, and the main cannon of the warship began to charge. At the same time, a giant globe appeared behind her, with colony lights pulsating on it like veins.

"Let me teach you what reality is, you laughable Artoria Pendragon. Light without shadows? That's a myth!"

"But if even the courage to pursue the light is lost... then a king is not worthy to be a king."

The radiance of the holy sword began to erupt from Artoria.

These days, since being summoned, she has been vying with Queen Victoria for control of the land.

She was furious at the other party's actions, because ever since the other party was summoned, they had been relentlessly enslaving the people of the entire British Isles, forcing them to work 18 hours a day.

Even the young children who were living happy lives were conscripted and forced to work in the polluted factory.

Even though countless people died in this kind of labor, the other party showed no sympathy whatsoever.

It's important to understand that before this, these people's lives weren't bad. The continuous supply of industrial products from the Ming Empire made their lives relatively comfortable.

But now, it has become like this.

She angrily questioned him, only to receive the reply: "This is the necessary price."

She also received a sarcastic remark from the other party, who said that she was just an old-fashioned person and that the so-called "royal way" was just a little girl's fantasy. They told her to save her energy and find a factory job instead.

This was her fourth encounter with Queen Victoria.

She felt that this evil queen had to be brought down, otherwise the people of the British Isles would face endless enslavement.

……

Chapter 845 Artoria's Curiosity

"Artoria, you naive King of Knights, you should drown in your pathetic ideals!"

Queen Victoria laughed sarcastically. This knight king was a very famous legend in her time.

However, she never admired him; on the contrary, she despised him immensely.

What a foolish king! He has nothing but unrealistic fantasies. He can't even manage his own harem, yet he dares to accuse her of enslaving the people and children.

We were too lenient with them before. Now it seems we have to strike hard and sweep this stupid old relic into the dustbin of history.

Queen Victoria's fleet's main cannons emitted a sharp whistling sound as gears meshed, and blood-red patterns lit up inside the barrels—a powerful boost from the vast territory of the British Empire.

At the moment the twelve giant cannons fired simultaneously, the trajectory of the cannonballs tearing through the air transformed into the shape of chains, each link bearing the totem of the conquered people: African ivory, Indian cotton yarn—these images twisted in the firelight.

"Your gunfire is driven only by the desire to plunder!"

Using the surrounding terrain, King Arthur leaped high into the air, his sword flashing like a comet as it hurtled towards the bridge of the Victoria Ship.

"Feel the weight of the empire, little girl."

The ship's cannons fired laser beams in the shape of a colonial railway network, which exploded into ash and blood mist at the point of impact. Aartoria dodged through the gaps in the beams, her armor scorched, and she was sent flying.

"hateful……"

Artoria wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth. Compared to her, the Knight King, the powerful queen of the British Empire undoubtedly had an extremely strong advantage in her homeland.

Whether in terms of fame or historical status, the other party far surpasses her.

The opponent was the ruler of the British Empire at its peak, whose territory and population even accounted for a quarter of the entire planet, which brought a terrifying bonus.

Even those who are working are giving her more strength.

Apart from being earlier and possessing the bloodline of a red dragon and a holy sword, she did not have many advantages.

“I told you, your struggles are futile, and your ultimate fate is to drown here with your ridiculous ideals.”

Queen Victoria stood on the deck of the giant ship, looking at Artoria with a mocking expression. "You have overestimated your own strength and underestimated my power."

"The history of this land empowers me, enabling me to guide the world toward its rightful outcome, and I will be invincible!"

Artoria clenched her fists. She wanted to charge straight in, but reason told her that it was too difficult.

Previously, rushing in front of the opponent meant they were off guard, but now that's practically impossible.

"Is this all there is to today...?"

Artoria tightened her grip on the holy sword.

Just as she was hesitating whether to retreat again, she suddenly felt a burning heat, and then saw a dazzling beam of light descend from the sky and hit Queen Victoria's ship directly.

The shockwave that erupted knocked down all the surrounding plants.

"That is?!"

Artoria shielded herself from the intense flying sand brought by the shockwave with her hand, and peered through her fingers at the source of the beam of light.

It turned out to be a huge interstellar spaceship.

"Cough cough cough."

Queen Victoria rose awkwardly from the wreckage of a ship amidst ruins, and also looked up at the sky.

She couldn't understand where this troublemaker came from. How rude of him to attack without even a greeting!

The enormous interstellar warship opened its hatch, and several smaller-looking spacecraft flew out, immediately surrounding her.

"Who are you guys?!"

Queen Victoria frowned deeply. She had thought that with her strong homeland and fame, she was already invincible.

But to my surprise, no sooner had I finished speaking than an enemy appeared from the sky.

And when they meet, they give themselves a ruthless blow.

Judging from the design of this spaceship, could it be a future heroic spirit from China?
